OpenZwave broken, devices malfunction

Post by packetloss »

Dear All,

It seems my Zwave devices are horibly broken, so I cannot use my shutters, screens and door/window contacts anymore :(. Please help.

This is not the first time all the zwave devices are out of function, but last two times I just stoped domoticz, removed the domoticz directory and put back a backup. This doesn't work anymore. I am running domoticz beta and I think its the OpenZwave tool / libs that break with updates. Unfortunaly, like I said, putting back a backup doesn't help it back to running. This is what I run now: Version: 2020.2 (build 12451)
The Zwave hardware, as lsusb tells me: Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0658:0200 Sigma Designs, Inc. Aeotec Z-Stick Gen5 (ZW090) - UZB


The devices are red:

When rebooting the rasp Pi, or restarting Domoticz, syslog says:

Code: Select all

OpenZWave: Exception. Type: 1, Msg: Cannot Load/Read ManufacturerSpecificDB! - Missing/Invalid Config File?, File: /home/pi/build32/open-zwave-read-only/cpp/src/ManufacturerSpecificDB.cpp (Line 74) OpenZWave.cpp:1037
and *that* I don't understand.. as far as I know, there never existed a build32 directory on my Pi for the last whatever years. Why is OpenZwave / Domoticz complaining about it now?

Several reboots of the didn't help. The device exists in raspbian, for years the same:

Code: Select all

root@elmo:~# ls -larht /dev/ttyACM0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 166, 0 Oct  6 18:49 /dev/ttyACM0
I tried installing the stable version of Domoticz and importing / restoring the latest database backup, no luck (doesnt supprise, because versions differ). Then I installed a fresh new Domoticz beta version and imported the latest backup of the database, also no luck.

can you please help?? I'd like to close my shutters tonight! :D

Thanks same issue for me today. Seems the latest manufacturer_specific.xml is causing the issue. I copied manufacturer_specific.xml.2 back into manufacturer_specific.xml and now zwave devices works again.
